[vtkusers] Anti-aliasing of VTK surface plots

[Karthik Krishnan]

Yes.. there is a smooth polydata filter and a windowed sinc smoothing 
filter to smooth meshes in VTK.

If you are generating the contours from image data, you can also apply a 
smoothing filter in the image domain such as the ITK level set antialias 
filter etc, so that its isocontour produces smoother looking contours. 
It guarantees that the surface will vary no more than half a pixel away 
from its unsmoothed location.
